Tsukioka Yoshitoshi is widely recognised as the last great master of the ukiyo-e genre of Japanese woodblock printing and painting. Printed in batches between 1885 and 1892, One Hundred Aspects of the Moon is a series of 100 woodblock prints, featuring famous historical and literary figures in various moonlit scenes.
Created as part of the series in 1885, Inaba Mountain moon features a warrior climbing over a rocky outcrop. The brave samurai depicted is none other than Toyotomi Hideyoshi (1536–98), the famed warlord known as the Taikō, or ‘Regent’, who unified Japan in the late 16th century.
